For Letting Me In

For Letting Me In What could and would we have withstood, When God who is gracious and also good Who will into our lives many things bring With life full of love and birds that do sing. God gave me life which has a kind soul Removed my sins and made me whole World with beauty God has now made And His Son who once in a cradle laid. Oh God so gracious who I highly respect Towards right way will you please direct Me and thank you for soul you did save Of mine and soon will be put in my grave. My soul through life still has survived And in heaven above will have arrived Many souls God saved again and again And I always thank Him for letting me in. James Thomas Horn Retired Veteran
